The Bay Horse Inn presents an excellent opportunity for an owner operator to take on an established business that is trading well but by no means to its full potential. Equally, it could prove a solid acquisition for an expanding regional operator looking to grow their portfolio.
Benefitting from a number of income streams, and with trade from both locals and tourists, the business is already well established with excellent reviews and good reputation.
After many years of hard work in the hospitality industry, the owners are now looking to retire.Personal
The business is run by one of the owners part-time, with the support of a team of full and part-time staff.
A full schedule of employees can be provided to seriously interested parties on request.Operative Daten
